1:45 Ryan dragging the barbell behind his scooter got a genuine belly laugh from me. Bodybuilding sketch comedy is a genre I didn’t know I needed.

As usual Ryan never fails to come with high quality content and a good banter! So! Don't sit for nothing! Get after it! And GET GROWING!

everybody clicked for the same reason

I am in my 60’s and for the last 30 years my goal has not been to look like Arnold, but rather to have his training philosophy. I look at how he used to do every exercise with enthusiasm, instead of dreading. He recently said in an interview how he never understood how lifters would just stand their going through the motions. That is why a lot of people use such heavy weight they are no longer able to keep strict form, but they can lie to themselves and use it as an excuse as to why their form is so bad. The same with lifting when your mind is not in it. Sometimes your body is telling your mind it needs a break, instead of just dropping the weight that day and doing more reps. Other lifters (including myself) have done this, and a 1/4 of the way into the workout gotten re energized and ended up having a serious heavy day.

As a younger man in the 90s, I trained the Arnold way (I watched the movie, I read the book). I worked out the entire upper body 3 times a week and legs once a week (it has always taken my legs a week to recover from one heavy workout). I put on 65 natural pounds at a very lean body mass in 3 years but overtraining gave me a life time of pains as well (shoulders, elbows, back especially) that I still contend with. I think if you are pushing for quicker gains at the risk of injury, then go for it. But, I'd say that lifting is best as a long game.

I trained Mike Metzer style the last 4 months. Amazing results. At 60 Im impressed with his method.

The main reason I like your channel is because it always challenges me to work out harder, and this one is probably one of the best versions of that

Ryan is the best fitness content creator, imo. His advice and scientific approach has gotten me out of so many plateaus I feel like I owe him money.

Ryan thank you for bringing in your amazing sense of humor towards serious topics of work outs etc etc. you definitely hold my attention and it just makes me want to learn more. I Appreciate everything you do.

Trained as Ryan for a couple months, best progress I've made in years of training.

Love this channel!!! Really informative and blooming hilarious 😂

You learn so much and laugh at the same time. Love it!

The thing about that training schedule of Arnies is he only trained like that in the few months during his prep. He didn't train it year round, 3/4 of the year he trained 4 days a week once a day. For roughly 3 months during prep he would do that disgustingly overkill yet badass workout routine.

I started training like Arnold but my housekeeper slapped me 😂

I did every body part 3 -4x week. 21 days straight,3.5 -4 hrs a day for y 15mo. straight. After 2 weeks, your not sore or even get tired, but i switched to 3day split, shoulders/legs/core, back/bi, chest/tri and actually rest the 4th day.. seeing way more muscle mass gains, but overall strength n mobility dropped

I use to train everything at least twice a week, and legs 3-4 times per week… depending where I was at in my program. Your body gets use to it, and I was seeing results, especially in strength.

Who's the thumbnail girl? Haha

" Except the salad, the salad can p***** off." 😂😂

Honestly Ryan, love your programs but what i truly enjoy more is the pure comedy in each one. I get a hell of a workout and laugh my a$$ off while doing it......literally.

1:45 almost fell from my chair, lol

Awesome video! Would love to see a video on gripstrength, as for me, it sometimes messes with the sets at the end of workouts. Almost lost a toe to it, too.😂

Wasn't he also working as a labourer while he was doing this routine too? That means he was pretty much working out all day. Arnie is a legend

The bull dog made my day. Ryan, you ever think about starting a channel on rumble?

Ive been doing you PPL program for 2 weeks now and I absolutely love it!

Ryan - your latest training programme broke my butt. I literally have both cheeks with a deep raw numb pain. I can't walk

I swear to you after I completed your backed by science program ( which was amazing by the way ) I thought to myself I want to try Arnold’s workout program again . Besides your programs , Arnold’s program gave me some serious gains . Looking forward to the next 30 days

I used to workout as the gym option in a Friday at high school. Then I had a gym membership. One weekend my brother invited me on this snowboard trip and we stayed at Steve’s house the night before. We got super stoned and they had the encyclopedia sitting right there. Flipping through the pages of that thing changed my life.

Arnie looked better than any modern bodybuilder. Just goes to show mind-muscle connection and getting right into it and enjoying it is far more important than any crap modern studies.

Awesome video Ryan. Amazing effort you put into that. Well done.

When I began training back in the 70's, the only protein powder that I could find was Bob Hoffman's protein powder. There were two formulas, 70% and 90%. Both tasted like paper mache, it clumped, and you basically had to chew it as you drank it. Weider had his protein powders also, but you had to order them as my local store didn't carry them.

Bro those naps that you could've died and wouldn't've noticed are the best.

63 5'10 190 and looking better than ever. The secret is to do it for life. Statistics say most stop working out when they reach 40. PS. I don't take supplements or any helpers. I do one body part a day except bicep and shoulder day ,once a week. Abs ,at least 4 ,5 times a week.

Idk about his routine, but I watched all of his videos and hit the gym with the same intensity. I did swole up and my gains were impressive. I didn't end up having that Arnold Style physique, but I did have an impressive physique considering my natural diet and my budget. I was getting praises in the gym and even professional bodybuilders in the gym greeted me. Hardwork really pays. Arnold really motivated me for that brief moment of glory.

I'm sure the roids helped Arnys recovery

This is the first time I heard someone say "dont eat brown rice, eat white rice" lol.

I love how you hold the mic! Lol. It’s awesome.

We need to see more of this girl in a bikini, keeps me motivated

I still remember the feeling i had when i first checked out his encyclopaedia,it was like "wtf" on each page😂. I mean how the fuck can someone train like that?It's suicide 😅 But one thing really got me motivated,he mentioned that he did flat, inc bench press,dips and flies for five years continuously.From that day I'm grinding myself in the gym each fucking day.

Any chance you'd try Serge Nubret's program and diet? You could always swap out the horse meat for lean beef.

2:50 Ryan! Your hexagon LED ceiling lights are FIRE! I need to make some myself!

0:21 why you came

I'm currently eating Carnivore (Ruminant Meats, Dairy, Eggs, water).....I purposely get 60% of my calories from FAT, and am LOSING weight. FAT, in and of itself, is NOT the issue. The absence of fat (especially animal fat) in your diet, causes your body to turn carbs (not just flours and grains, but also fruits and vegetables) into Fat because it sees itself as STARVING for Fat.

Man, your sense of humor makes me bark laugh out loud every vid. Just a big Thank you Ryan.

When I was about 20, I did Arnolds workout from Education Of A Bodybuilder. Worked great!

Just never forget that he said 'Screw your freedoms'.

Steroids too?

I can honesty say out of all the content with training videos I've watched over the years Ryans at the top of my list now. A huge reason is his dry humor for sure.

Could be one of my favorite videos on this channel

Many years ago around 2014 I did the Arnold for mass workout. 3+ hour workouts 6-7days a week. Was brutal! Did I gain mass some but wasn’t eating near enough to do so. Strength was insane after the 90days!

This is a big coincidence, I used the build by science program exercises of ryan humiston and implemented them in arnolds routine, but using twice a week same body part. Fastest gains I have seen, took a body scan and biggest muscle mass I have had. It does take more energy and sometimes to give a good amount of effort I had to divide shoulder and arm workout into two different workouts. Another great video Ryan thanks

@1:44 LMFAO! How many days has that happened to me?! Still, go and grow.

5 min later and I'm still laughing at him riding the scooter and dragging the bar. Good stuff

It would be interesting to follow Tony Sansone’s diet and workout from the 1920s. I think he was the first bodybuilder who published items like these. I have both originals, Tony Sansone’s Weight Gain Diet along with his Progressive Home Physical workout. However, I feel a lot of his success was related to good genes and non-processed food at the time.

Thing to bear in mind, that copy of Arnold's book isn't the same as the original. It was altered in the 90s. The diet and some exercises were different in the 80s edition.

I can tell you what the shakes were like- Bob Hoffmanns weight gainer- tasted like chocolate straw. You had to be a bad ass to drink. Then there was desiccated liver tablets and raw eggs shakes- talk about lethal farts 😂🤪🤪

Twice a week sounds good, are you going to put a program together like that? Chest and back same day stuff like that.

Ryan’s cracked the code to get 5mil views with that title and thumbnail

Who hasnt wondered. Great vid.

I was wondering what you used the mobility scooter for big guy, makes a lot of sense when I saw you dragging the barbell!

Informative, funny, and threw in some nice eye candy for good measure. Now this is 12/10 content.

"The salad can piss off!" Laughed too hard at that!! I'm also a salad dodger, I'm not a rabbit! Also, dragging the bar whilst driver the mobility scooter made me chuckle!!

That book and movie are the very foundation of my training journey.

I love that you get tips, and them dog cameos. Keep them coming.

Do the pullovers on a decline, steeper the better but whatever you feel comfortable with, should shift a bit more of the exercise onto the chest at the end.

You dragging the bar behind the rascal got me 😂

😂 Love the scooter pulling the bar across the floor, laughed until I cried

I have done this program in the past and had fantastic gains, did not eat quite like that but i can attest that it was both brutal and enjoyable. and yes i was sore too.

Just found your page as I have decided that I slick miss looking down and seeing my slab…but can I say, respectfully, I’m happy to see a body builder that likes em a lil thiccc 💪🏾

Hey Ryan , how about giving a HİT (Mike Mentzer ) style review. 1 set to failure, would love to hear your thoughts.

I'm not ashamed that I watched this video because of the woman in the picture for the video...and his good advice...and the comedy...and the woman, lol 😂

Do a video on Tom Platz 🙏🏼🙏🏼

I've been watching you since your first video on KZfaq... You look like a monster compared to then, well done

A tablespoon of honey? Us fructose-malabsorbers aren't gonna enjoy those on their way out

Shakes back in the day were Joe Weider's Weight Gainer 5000. Hard to dissolve and super lumpy. Required a blender to choke it down.

Dont know who the woman is you got to do this video for you, but shout out to her. I am in love with her and obviously your training worked 🤣

How do you do these videos with a straight face bro, I have to keep rewinding cos I miss the next bit of gold while I was still laughing

I was today years old when I discovered this channel and boy did I miss out.

Always wondered about trying Arnold’s routine-glad you did so now I know better!! Thx

I would love to see a follow up video about you are eating meat again, and the effects it has had on you.

I fast forwarded only to the last part. Not ashamed, would do it again.

You really should start stand up. Especially ex-military relate to everything you talk about. Is pay to come see your show 😊

The reason people feel pressing in theor delts and pecs is because they share some of the same motions like borizontal adduction lokw when pressing in supine or flyes.

One thing is missing in this video. What was the conclusion after 30 days? Did Ryan gain or loose muscle? Did he gain weight or got shredded? I am an average Joe, so I will not preach anything here. However, I have started seriously training 8 months ago, focusing on both workout and nutritioning and I am seeing amazing results. I am using Mike Mentzer High Intensity Principles and it works for me. I work out each body part once per week and it is enough. But on each workout I am going to absolute failure, usually assisted by some gym guys. However I have to point out that I am natural and pushing almost 40. For younger people and people using gear, once a week might not cut it.

The great and powerful Algorithm led me to your channel, and you've made a Subscriber out of me.... I was brought here for the knowledge therein I stayed for the humor....and the science based knowledge

Clicked because of the thumbnail, stayed for the education. Well done sir 😂

Pull overs stimulates my chest I think more than any other workout

holy shit, 1:37 , i almost spat my food out laughing :D

I love this dude. He reminds me of my buddies in the marines.

Any idea on how to fix lower back pumps from pre workout?

Keep the thicc women safe! Thicc thighs saves lives my friends. Love the vids brother.

I'd like to see a breakdown of which exercises we should do if we chose to follow that split you recommended that would hit each body part twice a week

I was about to say when this video started, he looked a lot bigger than normal. Something definitely made a difference!

You’ve gotten thick! I watched this video and another from 3 months ago. That Arnold w/o must have worked because your arms are significantly larger. 💪🏼

I died at "get there!" another great video.

no discussion of the reps and drop sets? that was a critical part of his training.

Some are saying," Do Mentzer's routine." I did.. I got better results from Arnold's volume style training. It seems that Mentzer was convincing in his writing, but in reality most need/require more volume that one day per week training.

Hey Ryan. In your Thumbnail photo for this video. The picture on the right, 'your facing the wrong way'!!

I remember buying his encyclopedia many years ago... binned it and then got hold of a copy just recently. Back in his day they didn't have access to such high quality supplements but then we all shouldn't rely on them anyway. Love your no-nonsense approach to training, etc. And by they way, that lady really brings the missing sparkle to your vlogs! ha... who is she, and what's her OF's? 😉

You hit the nail on the head. Dbol and genetics.
